When Princess Xinyang decided to raise him, he was just an infant, so naturally it was impossible for him to listen to what she said. Princess Xinyang told him later.
"So it is." Gu Jiao said, "Then, does Marquis Xuanping know?"
Xiao Liulang lowered his eyes and said, "I know, it was he who gave the kindness and made Princess Xinyang mistakenly believe that her son and the slave girl were captured and mutilated by assassins. It wasn't until four years ago that she learned the truth by chance - it turns out, She raised her son for fourteen years for her murderer."
After that, Princess Xinyang collapsed.
She has never forgotten that son, and she has never regarded Xiao Liulang as a substitute for anyone. She is really raising Xiao Liulang as another son.
She did everything she could to teach him, and devoted all her efforts to cultivate him into a young marquis who was the best in Zhaodu.
Because of this, she couldn't bear the blow of the truth.
The slave girl is dead, so I can only kill your son!
This is her inner demon, and it is all her evil.
"I was the last to know." Xiao Liulang said calmly.
He was calm on the face, but it was unknown if he was so calm on the inside.
Gu Jiao paused: "So the fire four years ago..."
Xiao Liulang nodded: "She wanted to kill me, she wanted to die with me. It's a pity that something went wrong and it wasn't me who was burned to death. Long Yi came later and rescued her."
He didn't say what was wrong, but Gu Jiao thought that it should have something to do with the real Xiao Liulang.
He once said to her, if I wasn't who you thought, she thought he was referring to Xiao Liulang, but it turned out to be Xiao Heng.
He suppressed the huge pain in his heart and said, "Sometimes I wonder, why wasn't I the one who died? Why was I alive? How many lives do I have to carry on my body? People like me... I am like this Dirty people!"
Gu Jiao gently took his hand.
"Xiang Gong, you are not dirty."
"Also, it's not your fault."
The night is cold as water.
The house on Suzaku Street was quiet.
Princess Xinyang woke up, Yu Jin entered the house with a pot of hot water, and said to her, "How does the princess feel?"
Princess Xinyang sat on the head of the bed and asked lightly, "Did I just faint again?"
Yu Jin said fearfully, "Yeah, fortunately, she fainted on the bed, otherwise it would be bad if you bumped anywhere."
Once Princess Xinyang fainted by the lake. It just so happened that Long Yi went out to run errands again. Yu Jin didn't hold her back and both fell into the lake with her.
Princess Xinyang looked at the extra needle eye in the elbow socket, and almost guessed that Gu Jiao had come: "Did that girl make something strange for me again?"
Yu Jin smiled: "It's really thanks to Doctor Gu."
Princess Xinyang murmured: "I don't know where she learned her weird skills?"
Yu Jin waited for Princess Xinyang to wash her face, then brought the pills left by Gu Jiao and poured a glass of warm water for her: "Doctor Gu said, from today onwards, you need to take one more medicine."
"Well." Princess Xinyang didn't object. Anyway, it's not bitter, just eat.
Princess Xinyang took the medicine and felt a little hungry.
Yu Jin brought a bowl of millet porridge over, and moved a small coffee table to put on the bed: "Before leaving, Dr. Gu instructed the kitchen to boil millet porridge, saying that she would eat a little when the princess wakes up, and the diet should be lighter these days. ."
Princess Xinyang scooped up a spoonful of millet porridge: "One mouthful of Doctor Gu, are you following her way or her demon?"
Yu Jin smiled and sat down beside the bed.
Princess Xinyang didn't want to eat a few mouthfuls of porridge, she still had no appetite.
Yu Jin advised: "Eat more."
Princess Xinyang turned her face away: "Don't eat it."
Yu Jin pushed the bowl in front of her: "Take another five mouthfuls."
"… ugh, you."
Princess Xinyang was helpless and had to endure and eat some more.
After eating, seeing Yujin not leaving, she asked, "What? Is there anything else?"
Yu Jin hesitated for a moment, and finally summoned up the courage to say, "Princess, do you really... do you hate Little Marquis that much?"
Princess Xinyang's expression faded: "Why do you mention him?"
Yu Jin said: "When you came out of the medical center, your mood was not right. He is now living in such a shameful way, which is more uncomfortable than death. If the princess really hates him, she should feel very happy when she sees him in such a situation. The princess was so sad that she fainted, princess, in your heart... do you also love the little prince?"
"You are talking nonsense again." Princess Xinyang said, scooping another spoonful of millet porridge and stuffing it into her mouth.
Yu Jin has served her for many years, so how could she not be aware of her temperament.
Yu Jin said sadly: "I'm not talking nonsense, the fire was not set by the princess at all, the princess softened at the critical moment, the princess has never been able to part with the mother-son relationship with Xiaohou Ye. In this case, why not the princess What happened to the little Marquis? It wasn't his fault what happened back then, he was just an innocent child. What happened back then wasn't the princess' negligence either, the princess should stop torturing the little Marquis and yourself!"
Princess Xinyang looked complicated.
She opened her mouth and hesitated, then she gently put down the spoon in her hand and said thoughtfully: "There was someone else who set the fire back then, but I still can't find out who he is. And... "
"What else?" Yu Jin looked at Princess Xinyang.
Princess Xinyang sighed and whispered, "Forget it, it's nothing."
A group of people returned to Bishui Hutong, and the third son drove the carriage back to the hospital.
Gu Jiao hugged Xiao Jingkong, who was sleeping soundly, and did not give Xiao Liulang a chance to refuse. Xiao Liulang looked at his gauze-wrapped hand, and then at his weak right foot, a trace of disgust flashed between his eyebrows.
hatred of oneself.
Xiao Jingkong was playing with mud, so Gu Jiao put a cushion on the bed, put the person on it, and went to the stove to fetch hot water.
"I'm coming." Xiao Liulang said.
Gu Jiao has never let Gu Jiao do anything about taking a bath since the little guy came down the mountain. Either Xiao Liulang washed him or Gu Xiaoshun or Gu Yan washed him.
"Okay." Gu Jiao hooked the stool with her feet and put the water basin and towel away.
Xiao Liulang tossed Xiaojingkong over and over again, wiped his body and changed his clothes, but Xiaojingkong didn't wake up at all.
Gu Jiao leaned against the wardrobe with her arms in her arms, and raised her eyebrows lazily: "What did he play today? So tired."
- Helong's misfortune is gone. Princess Xinyang's flowers are gone.
Xiao Liulang didn't say anything.
After washing Xiaojingkong, Xiao Liulang went to pour water, but Gu Jiao brought the water basin.
This is a trivial matter in life, but it is not a trivial matter if there are too many small things. From the initial indifference to now, he can't ignore it gradually.
He once didn't care about his own life or his disability, because his sins deserved to live in purgatory.
But what's wrong with her? To meet such an unbearable self
He had fooled himself into thinking that as long as he worked hard to do it, maybe they could really live in peace.
But when the truth was finally revealed and all his secrets were exposed, as if all the window papers were torn at once, he discovered that all his efforts were so vulnerable.
He is the son of the most inferior female slave. He has low and dirty blood on his body. His birth is a sin, and his survival is also a sin. He is stepping on the bones of his biological brothers. He is not worthy to touch those beautiful things. thing.
Gu Houye is right, he is not worthy of her, and people like him should stay far away from her.
Xiao Liulang sat in the room for a while, but before she could return to the east room to rest, she heard a sound coming from the yard.
It's so late, everyone is asleep, she doesn't go to bed, what is she tossing in the yard
Xiao Liulang wanted to see it, but felt that he shouldn't.
Now that she has decided to let go, what she does has nothing to do with herself.
She is still young, and one day she will understand that there are many good men in the world, and she is just the one she should never meet.
He closed his eyes and tried hard to be ruthless, but he couldn't ignore the movement in the yard.
Either way.
Sooner or later, we have to say goodbye.
"Wow~" Xiao Qingkong on the bed murmured and kicked the quilt over.
Xiao Liulang walked over, pulled the quilt on him, and tucked the quilt.
After that, he left the house and followed the sound to the backyard.
The scene in front of him made him stunned.
Under the cool moonlight, in the cold courtyard, she bent over and stepped on the stone bench alone to cut wood.
She is taller than two years ago, but she is a woman, and she still looks thin and thin.
Yuemo didn't want to wake up the family. Her movements seemed to be light, but they were actually very forceful, which was much more laborious than letting go of logging.
However, after so many efforts, fine beads of sweat had leaked out from her forehead.
Xiao Liulang walked over and asked suspiciously, "What are you doing?"
"Did it disturb you?" Gu Jiao asked him.
Xiao Liulang shook his head: "No, I haven't slept yet."
After that, his eyes fell on her saw and wood.
Gu Jiao curved her lips and said, "You lost your cane, I'll make you a new one."
